Ugly Dolls

Currently Listening to:
Mew - Beach

Natalie and Natasha graced our apartment with their wonderful presence.

Photos from Natasha's last day in New York. Got to see things I haven't seen myself:

A promotional show "Lie to Me" where people on 5th Ave. got to share lies they've told other people. Natasha and I wrote "We'd love for you to come with us!" (in the center):
Ron Arad's "No Discipline" retrospective at MoMA:It was so cool; everything was warped and chrome, we felt like we were in a dream (got a bit dizzy from the overwhelmingly huge structures inside).

Then walked up Fifth Ave. to FAO Schwartz:Obsessed with Ugly Dolls:Finished off the day with walking down the High Line at sun set:Walked down the stairs and landed at Pastis to eat the most divine steak avec Bearnaise sauce ever.

Then went to this Panty Hos party in Williamsburg full of skinny lesbians with short hair, gauged ears and backpacks.

It was closest day to perfection I've ever experienced.

I already miss Natasha terribly, and Nat even though she miraculously ripped our closet door out of its hinges as a souvenir of her drunken visit:
Fashion week is also going on, the Calvin show was well-received! Chris Kane's gingham was divine, A. Wang's was great and Bottega was so effortlessly elegant (my favorite so far). Waiting for Lanvin, Balenciaga, Yohji, Stella, Bruno, Undercover and Comme. EXCITED (save the best for last).

The new and final school year looks pretty good so far; making new friends and getting closer to old ones. More adventures to come soon, hopefully one that includes a visit to Australia in the near future.

On a Remote Island

Currently Listening to:
The xx - Islands

Whoops.

My last year of school is well underway, and the Spring 2010 Calvin Klein show is premiering in T-minus 5 days. The pace of senior thesis is accelerating and went from 0-60 in what feels like a split second.

Everything's pretty good. Aside from school and work and babies, I don't have much time for anything else, let alone rest.

Nat and Natasha are in the States, and will be gracing us with their presence next weekend <3

Icebergs left on my palette after I rinsed off the gouache!
The last days of summer from my window:Happy Fashion week! (?)
